trimaran. blessed me. with your. movement thank you very much to your number one thirty one thirty which i think is about about a thousand people here. i'll make it to number hundred thirty i'll be very lucky ok so it. is an experience one of the race organizers and apparently i wasn't exactly in for a treat can you tell me a bit about the specifics of the race because it seems fairly true through the hard you know here's a thousand gates and. he'll has about fifty. two. i see ok well i think if i make it past the first kilometer of the if out of my so i think it's right i certainly try to. get said to go.

as the other ski into the distance i try to get into a rhythm i don't have one of the go cross-country skiing and this time it wasn't any easier. so there's a more energy efficient way to do this. come on. early. on the wall too technical issues i have to address. can go backwards. first lesson. at least i was able to pick up some tips as my competitors spent most of. the bonbon.

the problem is all these guys are already twenty kilometer front but. it was slow going but i was determined to make it to the finish line and fortunately was waiting to keep me out. o. . for hours were they say about five kilometers so this is what it takes. to live and work in the arctic. whose help me. it had been a tough introduction to moments when i thought i'd head out into the countryside to meet some animals who were thriving in the difficult conditions. and one thing i

was really looking forward to doing up here was running into some. wild life but aside from that it also seems that they might have wanted to exotic guests as well . nice to me this may be rather far from their native lot spots according to keep iraq the cold doesn't bother them at all and they're surprisingly even temperate. of course the traditional habitat of the ostrich is africa these birds can also survive in the north especially considering the temperatures drop during the night in africa so they can live in different places as long as they have enough food. to eat. i think they are getting a bit hungry so what they want to give them a snack for my coat gets torn to ribbons. there might not be too much grass for them to nibble on round here but these ostrich is don't lack for vitamins and i was about to serve them of favorites cabbage and carrot combination.

that oh what i've got this is like going straight for the bucket especially this picture here. goes. all. the. sink you madame and miss your dinner was just a distraction. there are a few nice leftovers on the ground if you would like. you might not expect to find a thriving ostrich farm in moments. but people have been surviving out here in the cold for almost two thousand years. or and alexander live across the tundra on the outskirts of moments they're part of the sami people the most northern indigenous people in europe.

so they straight out of a very. thick. cover get to know. there's one hundred fifty of them all waiting up here. feeding time. so we're going to give them a treat to see. the reindeer all the siamese life blunt used for meat and transport and they're well aware what the shouts of their odors mean so this is the main feeding trough it seems that it's time to throw it out right more than girls. they are all too clever to be. this one once the absolute is going to get about two kilos of grapes like a shark i used to working one for maybe that deserve a bit more. although the sami have been herding reindeer for centuries yelena says

they also embrace the modern world. herding reindeer is not tradition it's true though that the younger generations has somewhat modified it was still used ranges can to make food where in the past they made things follow consumption now production has switched to outfits for people driving snowmobiles you might say we are more than de people but we still want to some of the old practices but we can't get away from them you know. i'm not include putting some of the animals to work after all could you really have all these reindeer without a sleigh. feeding the reindeer is one thing but catching them is quite another so xander is going to teach me the traditional way to become a reindeer cowboy. and that means becoming a dab hand with a rope was all we usually catch the ones we think are ill or the reindeer that are going to be used for work. and once it's cold up and ready.

there is nothing. you i caught him. too small for you that's over i got close but close wasn't going to pull all sleigh but if it first you don't succeed. yes yes yes yes yes. can i bring you down. ah some real reindeer rustling. so that was a little odd as well if i were there. thank you very much you would make a good reindeer herder. with all reluctant recruit thomastown ha sleigh was ready to go but if i was going

to get to my next destination before nightfall i needed something a little bit faster. i think driving one of these might be the most fun you can have and conditions are. pretty serious weather back there. i think i heard a bit of the rest. this is supposed to be a hotel with a different. switch that welcome to all snow than it should if. i was desperate for something to eat and drink but nowadays on your way through this place is a bit of a challenge. that

. i think i may be slightly lost. the fortunate lee has finally found somebody to give me directions hello excuse me can you tell me where is the ball here i'll show you the way thank you it's very important. for two thirds of the year it makes sense to make the most of it i'm delighted to. have created one of the region's most original and

a surprise. ok i see what they mean now about a hotel with a difference but. it's been such a long day that are a joke. at least a good slide back in june or the sea. legs

we speak your language and out of the. news programs and documentaries in spanish matters to you breaking news a little turn it into angles couldn't stories. you hear.

the spanish find out more visit eye to eye. teeth. to braving the elements and spending evenings in icy hotels i was starting to feel more at home above the arctic circle than did seem to mind ventures with my. with all these guys around i'm going to surprise the sons of course hasn't been an appearance but this is in fact the highlights all more months snore than elin picks i'm going to see what it takes to be a reindeer rider. these

races all the highlights of the games and the sammy riders tear around the blistering speech. once the competition is over anyone can have a go. the thing is about these races and most of these ranger is still quite wild. so to do is his use of the. speed of the two the hooked up. ready for some sleigh rides a child a chance for the. right. so all ranges are ready i'm already this is the big question. lads they seem to know what they're doing. on just how to hold on tight.

over though this is seriously. i mean there isn't a. fraud . but exhilarating ride later. i walked to the nearby river to get my breath back. i was still dreaming of sailing on the bering sea but i knew there was still plenty more to do before i felt comfortable heading out on to more months frigid waters. but there is a place in the city where the locals have a pretty high tolerance for an icy did. well as well as being a place that entertains visitors the oceanarium also doubles as a research center and today i'm going to take part in one or two little experiments

with the residents it was time for the grand entrance of dick all fantastically facial head greenland seal. is really. trained to respond to it is the frequency of sounds. city. which. now is three hundred. the. seals have incredibly sensitive hearing and the trainers here are looking to find exactly what sounds they can tell apart. so they don't quite go that still in the living. it may still be a work in progress but they're having some excellent results but we want to find

out how sharp a series here in the winds and seals can distinguish sounds from little difference as little as twenty has a between them so i think the humans here in lies outside to the two hundred has limit seals very sensitive hearing. and the trainers hope but given time the work they're doing will both benefit science and perk up their performances. so there are some really interesting behavioral studies going on in this oceanarium. it just goes to show that at least in the case of decay you can teach an old seal new tricks and that writes oh boy i. can do this one dick. i left to take a well earned rest and i went off to explore some more of the city. more

months because one of the young use regional capitals in russia it was founded in one nine hundred sixteen and it's the largest city in the world north of the arctic circle. its most impressive monument is at its highest point. safe to say that moments because one tough city during world war two it was a vital supply port for the soviet union and be allies and in fact the germans wants to cut it off so badly that they dropped more bombs here than anywhere else apart from stalin grat and just like the readiness monument in stalin the locals have built their own enormous tribute to the defenders here and they've nicknamed him as your ship. with fantastic views of the city it seemed like the perfect place to begin one more months experience and luckily i had someone to put me on the right track. with more months of the port came first followed by

a nearby settlement accommodating the port workers it's ice free but sometimes it does get frozen over because of fresh water from the local rivers the gulf stream prevents it from freezing over because it is this current that enables europe to survive without it the european continent would freeze with. more months is also home to russia's nuclear icebreaker fleet and momenta. those of the city's nautical past easy to find. so this is a monument to the year which was the very first polar ice breaker in the world and becoming one of the longest lived ice breakers ever in history and that. is its original anchor. we finally made it to the city docks and a place which has particularly fond memories for better slough. in one thousand nine hundred four the boat we had built sailed out from here the women were sobbing

as we left port many of them felt they would never see as again the weather was fine day we were wearing shorts those two days before we entered the arctic were great and then the temperatures dropped and i was treasure memories of the voyage not just because i built the boat. but just love was forced to leave his boat in the arctic but he and his crew made it back safely it was an inspiring story and i felt i was finally ready to take to the water so this is what it's all been leading up to my final test in more months and i'm coming aboard. catarina here to see if i can master some oxic sea mage solo captain larry over here hello. so what do i need to do to be a real arctic sailor i'll show you the great thank you very much.

we've set sail. and immediately i was sent to work on the take. the fun of being on their butts and obviously you can't have. a great big lengths of rope lying around in the way of the ship. is a section. we couldn't have picked a better conditions to head out in but you always have to be on your toes out here . for right now the weather is come with lots of sunshine but it may change at any moment the northern seas are no one for the magnificence you know the water appears to be black now but it will turn yellow when it stormy our yard is well equipped to face icy conditions. and apparently it's a certain type of person that wants to explore these waters another big name of

them two people sailing through the arctic are adventurous by nature but of course there are some tiny risks. one of them is the fact that the temperature of the water is always plus four degrees if you spend more than fifteen minutes and there you should probably call your wife to say goodbye. as valeri it warns the temperature dropped quickly and we moved into the cabin to take a look at the instruments. that were heading almost directly north zero degrees the compass points here my current job is to make sure that we just don't crash into the port but fortunately it's a reasonable distance over there. and in case the weather is to file there is the latest technology to rely on. going to crash into that number about rates we have to avoid that's a little way down the line there. everyone gets to place. it was going to take us

nearly two days to get into arctic waters if you like i wasn't going to be seeing an iceberg on this trip but then valarie said he had one extremely chilly final challenge for me. he wanted me to go in there and this is what's the free a lot of explorers have to do. i was being given a survival suit it's capable of keeping you alive in the water for a couple of hours if you can get it on in time. this. morning. but finally i was ready to take the plunge the last big tits. of going to to do this very quickly before i change my mind. could it get off the both.

out. even with the suits on it's not exactly a pleasant experience i couldn't wait to get back on board. them now james. we can consider you a real sailor finisher man a true sailor should wear a real uniform or a virgin must stripes. and i tell you it's much better being on the bering sea and being in it. but i certainly put myself through the wringer a bit of here but expedition is going to have to wait although the locals do say that if you flip a coin into the water here you will come back so. you know. today more months
